Binding Arbitration

You and Buena Vida LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.

The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language and shall take place in the county where Buena Vida LLC’s principal office is located, unless the parties agree otherwise.

Class Action Waiver

YOU AND BUENA VIDA LLC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

Unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Exceptions

Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring a lawsuit in court if the claim is solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the App or intellectual property infringement.

Opt-Out

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by sending written notice to legal@buenavida.app with your name and a statement that you opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply.

18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related to the App shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State where Buena Vida LLC is registered, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

To the extent arbitration does not apply, you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the applicable jurisdiction for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, invalid, or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. The unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if that is not possible, it will be severed from these Terms.

22. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Buena Vida LLC regarding the use of the App and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, regarding such subject matter.

23. Waiver

No waiver of any term of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term. Our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
